Im a complete newbie in being a php developer so please forgive me if im too dumb xD

Im have a link that will need to send a specific value for a variable using onclick, but the thing is, i used the get method for this but i cant bring the button to load it to the other iframe which is also inside the webpage.

heres the code of the first iframe with the link

   <?php 
<button name="link" type="button" class="search-button" id='.$propid.' onClick="reply_click(this.id)">Read More!</button>
             <script type="text/javascript">
                function reply_click(clicked_id)
                {
                     var javascriptVariable = clicked_id;
                    window.location.href = "propdetails.php?propid=" + javascriptVariable;


            }
            </script> ?>

and heres the other iframe with the name of "propdet"

<?php
    $propid=$_GET['propid']; 
echo '
    $propid<br>
<hr size="5">';
?>

Notes: "the two codes are in 2 different iframes on the same page." Problem: "The first code loads on the same iframe where i clicked the link." Goal: "I need to load on the iframe named ="propdet" without reloading the contents of the other iframe".

iframes are almost always a bad idea –  Dagon Jun 25 '13 at 2:49

Try This,

<?php 
<button name="link" type="button" class="search-button" id="$propid" onClick="reply_click(this.id)">Read More!</button>
         <script type="text/javascript">
            function reply_click(clicked_id)
            {
                 var javascriptVariable = clicked_id;
                window.location.href = "propdetails.php?propid=" + javascriptVariable;


        }
        </script> ?>

and 

<?php
$propid=$_GET['propid']; 
echo "
$propid<br>
<hr size=\"5\">";
?>

One thing to remember is that there is no interpolation of the variables with their values if they are enclosed in single quotes.
